Her research draws from perspectives in anthropology, cultural psychology, and the learning sciences to focus on the role of culture and ideology in science learning and educational change. Her research interests include how to: (a) disrupt problematic cultural narratives in STEM (e.g. brilliance narratives, meritocracy, and individualistic competition); (b) cultivate equity-minded approaches in ed- ucational spheres, where educators take responsibility for racialized inequities in student success; and (c) cultivate more ethical future

This required several programs within our institution to work onmethods that can be included to make students more aware of equity issues and assess theirunderstanding on the above subjects.This paper discusses how courses were changed to include equity as part of the curriculum.

Many design experiences happen in the first-year and senior year courses,though increasingly they are being incorporated into courses along the entire program [2]–[4].Instructors must make many decisions when developing design challenges, not all of which areclear. For instance, in senior capstone design, faculty commonly contend with ABETrequirements, ethics, project management, appropriate scope, appropriate technical content, andteam dynamics [5]–[7]. With
